Efficient Mobile Information Sharing Through Finger Swipe
Abstract
Smartphones have been pervasive in our daily life, and are now the dominant driver of social media. People post and access information on the social media through smartphones. In addition, users are likely to share information among a small group, such as taking a photo and sending the photo to a friend. However, there still lacks an efficient method to share information among smartphones in an ad-hoc manner. Mobile information sharing in general relies on some external application. This application is designed and implemented on the purpose of offering an alternative and more convenient tool for the mobile users’ data exchange. This application especially focuses on users with little computer knowledge. Also it provides an efficient way to identify the users before making a group through physical finger swipe across all the screens, instead of distinguishing the actual identification from a virtual name.
